Introduction
CV stands for Curriculum Vitae, which literally means 'The course of one's life'
A CV (sometimes called a résumé) is a concise document that outlines the relevant facts about you and your experience to a prospective employer.
Unlike filling in an application form, writing a CV offers you the chance to present information about yourself in a way you feel highlights your strengths and particular experience.
NOTE:
- There are many different ways to lay out your CV and this website gives you some examples of CVs that our clients have found helpful.
